Cultural Context Clues

Students read a passage describing a vibrant cultural festival and use surrounding details to interpret unfamiliar cultural references, such as red envelopes, dumplings, and fireworks. They answer questions that require them to infer meaning based on tradition, symbolism, and cultural practice. This worksheet strengthens students’ ability to draw on text clues and prior knowledge to understand events that may not be explained directly. It helps build cultural literacy and interpretive comprehension.
